I first read about the band Archeology in a Willamette Week review and liked their style and attitude. Very Portland. After a listen to their music I was hooked. I started following them on Facebook and always had them in the back of my mind for a possible creative project. I eventually contacted them in the hopes they needed a killer music video…and they did. Jason, Daniel and I met up at my studio and hashed out video ideas for their single By the By. We planned a big two day shoot in St Helens and Scappoose with a few extras playing the choir. We had a great turnout and shoot…perfect weather and very sunny for a February in Oregon. The band killed it and I think we killed it on our end…but you the viewer will be the judge of that. I told Archeology that if they make it big (and they will) that they have to take me with them. Music Video. (3:31)
